Everyone says that the coming winter can be difficult. Therefore, you need to prepare for it in advance. It's advisable to start now. We all know that you can expect anything because of war. Properly collected winter reserves will help not only to prepare for the cold season, but also to slightly relieve anxiety from uncertainty.



Today's edition. "Site" They will tell you what to do before winter.

Immediately it is worth saying that you do not need to panic and run to the store for everything. Often due to rash actions, people sweep everything from the shelves indiscriminately. This will only lead to wasted money. What can I say, I did it myself. Still in the fridge lies the pate bought on the first day of the full-scale invasion. So, the first rule: do not buy anything, make the best list. Let's go through the individual categories.



Food here is not worth zealous. There's enough food in the shops right now. There is no reason why it will be difficult to buy. However, some products may become more expensive. Therefore, we recommend visiting the wholesale market or shop and buying: flour, sugar, salt and sunflower oil. These are products that are constantly used in the household, so they will not be superfluous. It is best to buy in large volumes. This can significantly save money. And then don’t worry that something isn’t home.

In the same list, you can add cereals that you regularly use at home. However, you need to follow the rules of storage so that the moth does not start. So see for yourself whether it is necessary to make stocks of cereals.



You can also buy a little canned food: meat, fish and vegetables. These products stand for a long time, do not spoil. But there are nuances. First, assess how relevant this is to you. Secondly, choose only those canned food that you like and will eat. Winter supplies need to be collected competently.

Many experts also recommend stocking up on dry products that can be stored for a long time. For example, tea, coffee, crackers, breads, candies and dried fruits. But that's optional. Of course, it all depends on what region you live in. I think you know what you might need. If products are available, there is no point in buying them for the future.



This issue also needs to be approached individually. There is no need to build a whole pharmacy at home. Medications have a limited shelf life. It is better to buy a little so as not to throw it away. We recommend to conduct an audit of the home first aid kit and, if necessary, buy painkillers, remedies for digestive problems and heart medications. We also advise you to stock up on colds. It’s just because they can go up in season. But also without fanaticism.

It is also worth buying medicines that you use constantly. You can replenish the first aid kit with sterile bandage, gloves, iodine, alcohol, peroxide and bactericidal patches. Always the right thing. The other medications are quite situational. It is better to buy them as needed, not for the future.



Possibly the most important item on this list. It is very important to take care of housing. Check the windows for cracks, change the seals. Same thing with doors. Earlier we talked about how to increase the heat transfer of the radiator. There are also many nuances that need to be considered. If you live in a house with central heating, you should consider buying a heater. Also, it does not hurt to have an electric sheet if it fits into the budget.

Check your wardrobe. If necessary, it should be replenished with warm pajamas, thermal underwear, wool socks and sweaters. The house can be cool, you need to insulate with clothes. Do not hurt a couple of warm blankets or blankets. It is already cold outside, so you can safely buy.



I think that’s all I need this winter. For everyone, this list can change depending on habits, place and region of residence, as well as financial capabilities. It is not necessary to buy everything, it is important to buy the most necessary for you. We prepare for winter together and do not lose heart!
